IMPROVEMENT IN rCOOKlNG-STOVES.

Spccication forming part ofLctters Patent No. 58,061. dated September18, 1866.

To all 'whom it may concern:

Beit known that l, JAMES CHAMBERS, of Boonsborough, county ofVashington, in the State ot' Maryland, have invented a new and ImprovedCooking-Stove5 and I do hereby dec1are-that the following is a full andexact description thereof, reference being,` had to the accompanyingdrawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, like partsbeing indicated by like letters in the several iigures.

The nature of my invention consists in arranging' and constructing anaddition to an ordinary cooking-stove, whereby its capacity can begreatly increased at little trouble and small expense. y

In the drawings, D represents an ordinary cooking-stove, d being` thetop plate, having a step init and four holes. c is theusual pipehole orline.A E represents my addition or iinprovement, being shaped somewhatlike a liat box, constructed ot' cast or sheet iron closed on the foursides. In the front part ot' bottoin plate, f, there is a hole, g,formed partly by the front plate curving; fornard at h, and thepipe-hole ofthe front stove, D, tits snugly into thishole, by whichtheheat passes through the additional part E, or second story. The

top plate ofE has holes in it for cooking` utensils to sit in or over,and it has a pipe-hole, z'.

Ifit be desired, this part E can easily be constructed so as to have a.iirein it, in which ease a door would have to be constructed in one ofits sides, and a hearth, Sie., by which to secure proper draft.

It will be seen that the back part of E is supported by legsj.

W'hen it is necessary to do more cooking,` thancan be done by the frontpart or stove D, the part E can be easily attached, and the capacity ofthe stove doubled, if desired.

As to the holes in either ot' the top plates of D or E no specialdescription is necessary Having,` thus described Iny invention, what Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the UnitedStates, is-

The combination of the parts D and E, when the latter is constructed andarranged, in relation to the former, as shown and described, and for thepurpose set forth.

JAMES CHAMBERS.
